LUES FAMILY FOCUS: Time Management-- Routines help children learn to manage their time effectively. They learn to prioritize tasks and allocate time for all of their daily activities (homework, chores, sports, play, and screen time).
Early Release Day - March 7 @ 11:30 AM History has been made! For the first time in school history, the Toombs County Bulldog Basketball team will travel Thursday, March 7 to the Macon Coliseum to play at 3:00 PM for the 2024 GHSA AA State Championship! All Toombs County Schools will release at 11:30 AM on March 7, 2024 to allow sufficient time for our dedicated fans to travel to the State Championship game. All students will be served lunch before dismissal. If your child is a car rider, please make sure you or someone on the pick-up list is at the school to pick him/her up at 11:30 AM. If your child is a bus rider, please make sure someone is at your residence shortly after 11:30 AM to receive your child off of the bus. We will resume normal school hours on Friday, March 8.
LUES FAMILY FOCUS: Routines provide a sense of predictability and security for children. Knowing what to expect helps students reduce anxiety and build a sense of stability.
LUES PARENT UPDATE FOR 7 MINDSETS LESSON: The Time is Now
Do encourage your children to discover what motivates them and what makes them feel powerful. Tapping into these feelings and knowing what tools they might use to get into a “zone” and perform at an optimal level is a win-win for both parents and children. Talking with them about times where they felt their absolute best and figuring out what was unique about those moments is a great way to help them get back there. For some children, it’s a song or routine that makes them feel great. For others, the memory of a time they felt powerful is enough to think back to.
LUES DAYCARES FOR THURSDAY 3/7/24 EARLY RELEASE: Boys and Girls Club, Step by Step, and Nip and Tuck have confirmed they will be ready to receive students off the bus at 11:30. Please reach out to your daycare and make sure they are going to be prepared for students. Let us know if you get a response so we can let others know.
THERE WILL BE NO TOOMBS COUNTY AFTER SCHOOL!

LUES 7 Mindset Lesson: THE TIME IS NOW- Embrace Every Moment – One measure of our lives is how we feel in each moment. To what degree do we experience positive emotions like joy, love, gratitude, empathy, etc.? When we embrace every moment, we squeeze the most out of all experiences and live lives of greater joy and happiness. We must seek circumstances and moments that create great joy and memories. Even in difficult times, such as losing a loved one, we experience love; while sad, such experiences are still rich and add meaningfully to our lives.
Mrs. Carroll's Class enjoyed being read to this week :) Thank you to all the visitors who came to LUES

LUES 7 Mindsets for March: The Time is NOW! The Time Is Now Mindset teaches us the importance of harnessing the power of the moment and taking purposeful action. The simple fact is that all of our power to act and make an impact exists in this moment. We cannot change the past, and the future hasn’t happened, so we must
recognize that our only path to happiness, fulfillment and meaning is to take purposeful action in the present toward creating the lives of our dreams.
LUES Leap Day: Mrs. McCoy and Ms. Morris's class completed a Leap Day time capsule activity this morning. All of their findings and work have been placed in the time capsule, and on Leap Day in 2028, our future students will get to see what our current students wrote to them.
